Conference tournament predictions: ACC

The winner of this tournament, if it's North Carolina and Duke, will likely be a strong candidate for a #1 seed in the East. Which would mean they would get to play all NCAA Tournament games in the state of NC before the Final Four. As for the rest, there are a number of bubble teams in this bracket, including VA Tech, Miami, and Maryland. They all would like to win a couple of games so they can breathe easier on Sunday.
